             Summary: Improvements to Autoscaling in Apache Stratos
                 Key: STRATOS-488
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STRATOS-488
             Project: Stratos
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Autoscaler
            Reporter: Lahiru Sandaruwan


You can find some details about autoscaling from [1] and [2].

1. Improve Autoscaling to predict the number of instances required in the next 
time interval.

Currently we predict the load for next time interval. Then we use a threshold 
to decide on scale up or down. Factors that we are considering are the requests 
in flight at load balancer and Load average and memory consumption of cartridge 
instance.

Best approach would be to decide the number of instances that will be required 
to handle the load in next time interval.

2. Predict the load according to a schedule defined by end user

This aspect will be needed to handle seasonal load expectations. 

E.g. High load on Christmas and new year period.
